Well now we know Salon thinks Reagan was more ill informed than Trump. I'd call that a back-handed compliment.

I agree with their assessment. Trump appears to be ready to be a better president than Reagan was in many ways.

Fingers remain crossed.

Behind the Ronald Reagan myth: “No one had ever entered the White House so grossly ill informed” - Salon.com

'No one had ever entered the White House so grossly ill informed. '

'His White House staff found it difficult, often impossible, to get him to stir himself to follow even this rudimentary routine. '

'All of his disabilities—gross misperceptions and knowledge gaps—he carried into the White House. '

'I could never understand where power was in that White House; it kept moving. '

'Baker, a moderate, had been floor manager for Ford’s effort to deny Reagan the 1976 presidential nomination, and in 1980 he had run George Bush’s campaign against Governor Reagan. '
